DigiCam

What is the difference between optical and digital zoom?

With optical zoom, the DigiCam's lens physically moves inside the camera; with digital zoom, the camera's processor zooms the image electronically. If you zoom too much, your image will become pixelated.

What sort of batteries should I use with the DigiCam?

Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries work the best and have the longest lifetime. 
Nickel-Cadimum batteries also work very well as do Alkaline batteries. Do not use 
Lithium batteries.

What resolution should I use for 4x6-inch photos?

We recommend 640x480 for 4x6-inch images, 1024x768 for 5x7-inch photos, and 1600x1200 for 8x10-inch
photos.

Can the DigiCam be harmed by airport X-ray machines?

No, there is no evidence that X-ray machines can affect the performance of the DigiCam or the quality of DigiCam photos.
